Program Notes:
How beautiful are English Folk Songs! This simple, yet appealing setting of "Green Bushes" is a perfect change of pace for your next concert and will provide ample opportunity for your students to work on expression and shading. Melody and countermelody interweave amidst dreamy harmonies, transporting you to another time and place.
